[quote=Anonymous]You have to understand the mentality at Chesterbrook, Overlee, and Tuckahoe...it is cult like. The kids are crazy...the parents more so...at the Tuckahoe/Overlee meet it was the parents taunting Overlee at the end of the meet not the swimmers.... The reason why they are so good is that summer swim consumes those families...the kids swim year round, no one EVER misses a summer meet, their siblings start young and there is an expectation to win. At relay Carnival there are parents coming to watch and to cheer for the team that don't have kids swimming in it. If they don't win their coaches get fired. If they don't win more pressure is put on families to either swim more in the winter or get private lessons. That being said the kids love it and buy into it....[/quote]
